I love how you designed Nikola. It's perfect. The movement, the expressions. It feels just like how she sounds! Like the feeling was definitely there, but like, I did not expect it to just be, hello, Jon.

Apologies for the deception, but I wanted to make sure you started reading, so I thought it best not to announce myself.

I’m assuming you’re alone; you always did prefer to read your statements in private. I wouldn’t try too hard to stop reading; there’s every likelihood you’ll just hurt yourself. So just listen.

Now, shall we turn the page and try again?

I love how she sounds like a kindergarten teacher when she's talking to a man she kidnapped about skinning him alive and using his skin in a ritual to bring an eldritch entity into the world

[JartinVartinJlackwood]

I love how his "wait. What?" and "fuck. You" are so audible even with a gag😂 that's our jon

[mxxnlight]

i've always loved how unnecessarily polite and child-like nikola talks to her peers. it's honestly just funny, i dont find her disturbing or unsettling, shes just a funny character.

[Saga_Anserum]

my motto is "keep your skin in bad condition so serial killers and also Nikola can't take you immediately"

“Recording anything spooky?” Said the spooky thing being recorded

3:36 Cue the two coffin bois shopping for lotion at the local Greggs

I really like this! I like how Nikola was leaning down to talk to Breakon and Hope, it’s implied that they are 6ft tall and since Nikola was leaning that makes me think she’s a giant, which is terrifying thank you

[coyote]

at 2:03 i am 110% positive he says "fuck you" and I find that absolutely wonderful <3

[pellaw]

nikola sounds like she talks Like This. so much enunciation i adore her

[boopadoop]

She's filled with so much fucking joy at Jon's suffering and I love it

[nobody.]

Through to this entire thing the first time I heard this scene I was imagining Jon in the studio saying, "mmmph. mmmph-mmm. mmm-mmmm. mmph-mm-mmmmph" into a microphone and started laughing

[ollythecrab]

so... do you think she can call him Elias?

[cassou]

"Ooh, but now, *I* can ask the questions! How are you feeling?"

I love this Nikola so much, she's just. Delightful.

[DrGnoel]

I also love how Jessica Law, the voice actress for Nikola also was the Toy Soldier in The Mechanisms

[lordeventos]

i think she knew elias was jonah, since she knows about changing skin and deception, that'1s why she asks if she can call him elias

[spicemoss]

op i really appreciate how she holds the tape recorder like a cell phone

[lemmetalkaboutthis]

Lmfao, Jon saying "I'm fine" when Nikola asks how he's doing is just So British™ I fricking love it
That reply fucking sends me every time

[cometsquare]

I absoloutely love how Nikola keeps saying "Can I call you Elias?"
